Large pulmonary cryptococcoma and cryptococcal meningitis in an immunocompetent patient: a case report.

Abstract:

:Pulmonary cryptococcoma is a life threatening mycosis and is an unusual disease for immunocompetent individuals. Herein we report a case of large pulmonary cryptococcoma associated with cryptococcal meningitis, presenting radiologically as a lung mass in right upper lobe, in a previously healthy, HIV negative, immunocompetent young individual. Since cryptococcosis continues to be an important infection in HIV negative patients and is associated with substantial overall and cause-specific mortality, the need for consideration of this entity in the differential diagnosis of a lung mass is emphasized.
